GOD BE WITH the days when a simple, traditional pancake with sugar and lemon juice was enough on Pancake Tuesday. Nowadays, if it doesn’t have at least three toppings and come in a variety of impossible shapes, we don’t want to hear about it.
But as you’re making your fancy pancakes, please keep these poor souls in mind. They tried to be creative with their offerings, and failed utterly.
1. This pancake with an exceedingly creepy face
That pecan nut mouth looks far too much like real lips. :(
2. This pancake, which was supposed to be in the shape of a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle
Oh.
3. This unfortunate-looking cinnamon pancake
Slimy.
4. This chilling attempt an an Easter Bunny pancake
Those banana-blueberry eyes, staring into your very soul.
5. This stomach-churning experiment with food colouring
Just no.
6. This disappointing ode to Mickey Mouse
7. This X-rated version of the innocent bacon pancake
An example of what could happen if you try this bacon pancake recipe. Smutty.
8. This alarming pancake portrait of Tinkerbell
Absolutely nailed it.
9. This rainbow stack, or ‘More Adventures in Food Colouring’
We will NOT taste the rainbow, thank you very much.
10. This interesting shot at pancake art
Breakfast, with a side of terror.
11. And these Star Wars-inspired pancakes, gone horribly wrong
